You got 92% (44 right out of 48). The average score is 73%.

I confused a 52 Mercury for a 54 ):

I did however tell my Kaisers from my Willys, Studebakers, and DeSotos.

By god, how old is this website?

I got a 42%. I don’t know shit about classics.

However, the multiple choice made it slightly easy. I managed to get the one with all the badges right just by identifying the Dodge badge quite easily and reasonable logic on which badge was luxury, and that there’s no way in hell Chevy would ever have a man’s face as a badge.

96% (46 out of 48) Apparently I need to pay attention to Henry J’s and Willys’.

77 percent, which considering my utter lack of 50s car knowledge, I’m happy about.

Admittedly I cheated on the hood ornaments and the 1956 Chrysler Corp ones, and about 50% were lucky guesses, but still 100% (about 80% adjusted for cheating).

You got 67% (32 right out of 48). The average score is 73%.

Fuuuuu.... I didn’t expect any better, but I sense some confirmation bias in that average.

I ragequit after having almost nothing correct 9 questions in. Sure, I could identify the odd Cadillac. But ask me about a DeSoto and I’m right out. Also, it why make a new damn bodystyle every year? The 50’s were wierd. Lack of sportscars wierds me out. When you look at the 30’s, 60’s, 70’s and 80’s, people generally remember the sports cars. The 50’s USA has no sports cars. Which makes them less ‘ingrained’ in the car-culture fabric. At least to me, in the Netherlands. And I’m generally the one who knows the difference between a SIATA and a Cisitalia.

Same here. I got question 1 correct due to wing size differences, the rest was a pure guessing game. Ragequit as there’s no point in guessing everything, probably would’ve had 30-40% or so. All these cars look similar, and all seem to be American. With a bit of diversity I would’ve done better.

Finished it anyway: 38%. Nash and Plymouth Furies (Christine!) helped me, the rest was almost purely guessing.
